Medallion Status by John Hodgman

Both unflinchingly funny and deeply heartfelt, MEDALLION STATUS is a hilarious, thoughtful examination of status, fame, and identity. It s about the weird trauma that comes with success that feels unseemly to discuss (because who will sympathise with you?); about the addiction to status that sometimes (always) follows success; and about the way we all deal with those moments in public and private life when we realise we don t quite have it anymore.

John Hodgman is an actor, writer, and comedian. He has three New York Times best-selling books: The Fields of My Knowledge, More Information Than You Require, and That Is It. He was welcomed back as a contributor after an appearance on The Daily Show to promote his books, serving as the show's Resident Expert and Deranged Millionaire. This led to an unexpected and, to be honest, unbelievable career in front of the camera. He's done stand-up for the president of the United States, at a TED conference, and in a mausoleum in Brooklyn's Green-Wood Cemetery.

Finally, he is the host of the renowned Judge John Hodgman podcast, in which he settles real-life conflicts like Is a hot dog a sandwich? He is now working on Vacationland, a memoir that will be released in October 2017.
